Sublinear algorithms for testing monotone and unimodal distributions
The complexity of testing properties of monotone and unimodal distributions, when given access only to samples of the distribution, is investigated. Two kinds of sublineartime alg...

Almost random graphs with simple hash functions
We describe a simple randomized construction for generating pairs of hash functions h1, h2 from a universe U to ranges V = [m] = {0, 1, . . . , m - 1} and W = [m] so that for ever...

Materialized Views in Probabilistic Databases for Information Exchange and Query Optimization
Views over probabilistic data contain correlations between tuples, and the current approach is to capture these correlations using explicit lineage. In this paper we propose an al...
